Since this would have been Seton Hall's graduation month, we will highlight our seniors as part of our "May Senior Spotlight Series." Powered by Under Armour, we engaged select seniors with a little question and answer session about their time at The Hall.   Â
KASSI YOCCO
WOMEN'S CROSS COUNTRY
Kassi Yocco (Bethlehem, Pa.) has been a team leader on the course for Seton Hall over the last four years. As a senior, she finished as one of the top two Pirate competitors in all eight meets and led the Pirates in five.  Garnering five top-10 overall finishes, including four in the top-5, Yocco took first overall and led the Pirates to victory at the IC4A/ECAC Championships.Â
Â
A three-time BIG EAST All-Academic Team member, Yocco was inducted into the Chi Alpha Sigma National Scholar-Athlete Honor Society.
